Urgent.ly Inc.

Up to 113,170 Shares of Common Stock Offered by the Selling Stockholders

This prospectus relates to the resale from time to time by the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus or their permitted transferees of up to 113,170 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Urgent.ly Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”). The Shares were issued and sold to the selling stockholders in a private placement (the “Private Placement”) pursuant to a purchase agreement among us and such selling stockholders dated February 26, 2025 (the “Purchase Agreement”). Concurrently with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the selling stockholders, and we are registering the Shares being offered hereunder pursuant to such Registration Rights Agreement on behalf of the selling stockholders, to be offered and sold by them from time to time. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares offered by this prospectus. See “Prospectus Summary—The Private Placement” for further details.

The selling stockholders may sell any, all or none of the securities and we do not know when or in what amount the selling stockholders may sell their securities hereunder following the date of this prospectus. The selling stockholders may sell the securities described in this prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices. We provide more information about how the selling stockholders may sell their securities in the section titled “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 11 of this prospectus.

We have agreed, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, to bear all of the expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the Shares. The selling stockholders will pay or assume discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers or dealer managers and similar expenses, if any, incurred for the sale of the Shares.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ULY.” Each prospectus supplement will indicate whether the securities offered thereby will be listed on any securities exchange. On April 17, 2025, the last quoted sale price for our common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $4.59 per share.

We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” as defined under the federal securities laws, and, as such, may elect to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements for this and future filings.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

About this Prospectus

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), using a “shelf” registration process.

The selling stockholders may use this prospectus to sell up to 113,170 shares of common stock from time to time through any means described in the section entitled “Plan of Distribution.” Additionally, under the shelf process, in certain circumstances, we or the selling stockholders may provide a prospectus supplement that will contain certain specific information about the terms of a particular offering by one or more of the selling stockholders. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale by such selling stockholders of the securities offered by them described in this prospectus.

We may also provide a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement to add information to, or update or change information contained in, this prospectus. Before you invest in our securities, you should read both this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement together with the additional information described in the sections titled “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference.”

Neither we nor the selling stockholders take any responsibility for, nor provide any assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. This prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement or any related free writing prospectus do not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities other than the securities described in this prospectus or in any applicable prospectus supplement or an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy such securities in any circumstances in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement, the documents incorporated by reference and any related free writing prospectus is accurate only as of their respective dates. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed materially since those dates.

This prospectus, any prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein contain summaries of certain provisions contained in some of the documents described or incorporated by reference herein or therein, but reference is made to the actual documents for complete information. All of the summaries are qualified in their entirety by the actual documents.

Risk Factors

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under “Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors” of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and under “Part II-Item 1A-Risk Factors” in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed subsequent to such Form 10-K that are incorporated herein by reference, as may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our operations. Please also carefully read the sections titled “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference.”

Forward‑Looking Statements

This prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement contain certain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. Forward-looking terms such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “potential,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “project,” “predict,” “target,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate” or “expect” or the negative of these words or other words, terms and phrases of similar nature are often intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Those statements appear in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus and the documents incorporated into this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus by reference, particularly in the sections titled “Business,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of our management that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements about:

We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about our business, the industry in which we operate and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and these forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or development. These forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus speak only as of the applicable date of such document and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus . Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond our control, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, the events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, on in the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise.

In addition, statements in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of the document containing such statement, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and you are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

You should read this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus, and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of the forward-looking statements in the foregoing documents by these cautionary statements.

Use of Proceeds

The Shares offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus will be sold by the selling stockholders for their respective accounts. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of our common stock by the selling stockholders.

Selling Stockholders

This prospectus relates to the possible resale of up to 113,170 shares of our common stock held by the selling stockholders.

The selling stockholders may from time to time offer and sell any or all of the shares of common stock set forth below pursuant to this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement. When we refer to the “selling stockholders” in this prospectus, we mean the persons listed in the table below, and the pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees, successors, designees and others who later come to hold any of the selling stockholders’ interest in the common stock other than through a public sale.

The following table provides the names of the selling stockholders and the number of shares of our common stock offered by such selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders listed below have previously been granted registration rights with respect to the shares offered hereby pursuant to that Registration Rights Agreement.

We cannot advise you as to whether the selling stockholders will in fact sell any or all of such securities. In particular, the selling stockholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their shares after the date on which they provided us with information regarding their securities. Any changed or new information given to us by the selling stockholders, including regarding the identity of, and the securities held by, each selling stockholder, will be set forth in a prospectus supplement or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, if and when necessary.

Please see the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” for further information regarding the selling stockholders’ method of distributing these securities.

The number of shares and percentages of beneficial ownership set forth below are based on 1,244,830 shares of our common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2025. Beneficial ownership is determined under the SEC rules and regulations and generally includes voting or investment power over securities. We have prepared the table based on information given to us by, or on behalf of, the selling stockholders.

* Represents beneficial ownership or voting power of less than one percent (1%).

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions

On February 26, 2025, we entered into the Eighth Amendment with certain of our subsidiaries, the Second Lien Agent and the lenders party thereto, including the selling stockholders. The Eighth Amendment amends the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2021 (the “Second Lien Loan Agreement”), among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, the Second Lien Agent and the lenders from time to time party thereto, including the selling stockholders, to, among other things, (i) permit our entry into a Credit, Security and Guaranty Agreement dated February 26, 2025 by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, as borrowers, MidCap Funding IV Trust, as agent, the financial institutions or other entities from time to time party thereto as lenders, and the other parties party thereto as additional guarantors and/or borrowers from time to time, (ii) modify the interest rate to permit us to pay interest in kind for a specified period of time at a rate of 16.0% per annum, and thereafter, pay interest in cash at a rate of 13.0% per annum, subject to certain conditions, (iii) extend the maturity date of the loans under the Second Lien Loan Agreement from March 31, 2025 to July 31, 2026 and (iv) provide for the payment of an amendment fee in an amount of $2,600,000.

On February 26, 2025, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Investors, including the selling stockholders. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in consideration of the Eighth Amendment, we issued the Shares. We also agreed that unless all Obligations (as defined in the Second Lien Loan Agreement) are repaid in full prior to July 1, 2025, we will issue the Subsequent Shares to the Investors. If an Investor (together with such Investor’s affiliates, any person acting as a group together with such Investor or such Investor’s affiliates and any other person whose beneficial ownership of common stock would be aggregated with such Investor or such Investor’s affiliates for purposes of Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) would beneficially own in excess of 9.9% (or, at the election of the Investor, 4.9%) of the number of shares of the common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the Shares or the Subsequent Shares, as applicable, issuable to such Investor, in lieu of acquiring such Shares or Subsequent Shares, such Investor shall acquire the Pre-Funded Warrants to acquire up to the equivalent number of shares of common stock.

Concurrently with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors, including the selling stockholders, pursuant to which we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement with the SEC by May 15, 2025 to register the Registrable Securities. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable following the filing hereof. The Investors are also entitled to piggyback registration rights.

Neither the selling stockholders nor any of their respective affiliates have held a position or office, or have any other material relationship, with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates, other than the selling stockholders' role as lenders under the Eighth Amendment. The selling stockholders made an independent investment decision to enter into the Eighth Amendment, the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.

Description of Capital Stock

The description of our capital stock is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 4.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2025.

Plan of Distribution

This prospectus relates to the resale by the selling stockholders of up to 113,170 shares of common stock. We will not receive any of the proceeds of the sale of the common stock offered by this prospectus. The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock will be the purchase price of the common stock less any discounts and commissions. We will not pay any brokers’ or underwriters’ discounts and commissions in connection with the registration and sale of the common stock covered by this prospectus. The selling stockholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their respective agents, to reject, any proposed purchases of common stock to be made directly or through agents.

The selling stockholders may sell the securities offered by this prospectus from time to time to purchasers:

Any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who participate in the sale or distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. As a result, any discounts, commissions or concessions received by any such broker-dealer or agents who are deemed to be underwriters will be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Underwriters are subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between the selling stockholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of the securities by the selling stockholders. Upon our notification by a selling stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with an underwriter or broker-dealer for the sale of securities through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution, secondary distribution or a purchase by an underwriter or broker-dealer, we will file, if required by applicable law or regulation, a supplement to this prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act disclosing certain material information relating to such underwriter or broker-dealer and such offering.

The securities may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions:

These sales may be effected in one or more of the following transactions:

These transactions may include block transactions or crosses. Crosses are transactions in which the same broker acts as an agent on both sides of the trade.

In connection with distributions of the common stock or otherwise, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume with selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may also sell the common stock short and redeliver the common stock to close out such short positions. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of the common stock offered by this prospectus, which common stock such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). The selling stockholders may also pledge the common stock to a broker-dealer or other financial institution, and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial institution, may effect sales of the pledged common stock pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

A selling stockholder may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell the common stock covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by any selling stockholder or borrowed from any selling stockholder or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from any selling stockholder in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). In addition, any selling stockholder may otherwise loan or pledge the common stock to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the common stock short using this prospectus. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

At the time a particular offering of the common stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the name of the selling stockholders, the aggregate amount of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including, to the extent required, (1) the name or names of any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, (2) any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling stockholders and (3) any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed to be paid to broker-dealers. We may suspend the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus for certain periods of time for certain reasons, including if the prospectus is required to be supplemented or amended to include additional material information.

The selling stockholders also may transfer the securities in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

Upon being notified by a selling stockholder that a donee, pledgee, transferee, other successor-in-interest intends to sell our common stock, we will, to the extent required, promptly file a supplement to this prospectus to name specifically such person as a selling stockholder.

The selling stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner, and size of each resale or other transfer. There can be no assurance that the selling stockholders will sell any or all of the common stock under this prospectus. Further, we cannot assure you that the selling stockholders will not transfer, distribute, devise or gift the common stock by other means not described in this prospectus. In addition, any common stock covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The common stock may be sold in some states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with.

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some shares of the common stock owned by them and, if a selling stockholder defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell such shares of the common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment or supplement to this prospectus amending the list of the selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as the selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer shares of the common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

A selling stockholder that is an entity may elect to make an in-kind distribution of the common stock to its members, partners or shareholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part by delivering a prospectus. To the extent that such members, partners or shareholders are not affiliates of ours, such members, partners or stockholders would thereby receive freely tradable shares of the common stock pursuant to the distribution through this prospectus.

We have agreed, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, to bear all of the expenses incurred in connection with the registration of common stock pursuant to this prospectus. The selling stockholders will pay or assume discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers or dealer managers and similar expenses, if any, incurred for the sale of common stock pursuant to this prospectus. The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary cross-indemnification provisions, under which we are obligated to indemnify the selling stockholders in the event of material misstatements or omissions in the registration statement attributable to us, and the selling stockholders are obligated to indemnify us for material misstatements or omissions attributable to them.

The registration rights terminate upon the date as of which all of the registrable securities thereunder have been sold pursuant to a registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or are permitted to be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act without registration or restriction (including as to volume by each holder thereof), and without compliance with any “current public information” requirement pursuant to Rule 144 and all restrictive legends associated with such registrable securities have been removed.

The validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation, San Francisco, California. Additional legal matters may be passed on for us, or any underwriters, dealers or agents, by counsel that we will name in a prospectus supplement.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 14. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution

The following table sets forth fees and expenses to be paid by us in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered, other than discounts and commissions to be paid to agents or underwriters. All amounts shown are estimates except for the SEC registration fee.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a corporation’s board of directors to grant, and authorizes a court to award, indemnity to officers, directors and other corporate agents.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions that limit the liability of our directors and certain of our officers for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for the following:

Similarly, our officers who at the time of an act or omission as to which liability is asserted consented to or are deemed to have consented to certain service of process rules under Delaware law will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as officers, except for liability in connection with:

Any amendment, repeal or elimination of these provisions will not eliminate or reduce the effect of these provisions in respect of any act, omission or claim that occurred or arose prior to that amendment, repeal or elimination. If the

Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to provide for further limitations on the personal liability of directors or officers of corporations, then the personal liability of our directors and officers will be further limited to the greatest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.

In addition, our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers, and may indemnify our employees, agents and any other persons, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Our bylaws also provide that we must advance expenses incurred by or on behalf of a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, subject to limited exceptions.

Further, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers that may be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. These indemnification agreements require us to, among other things, indemnify our directors and executive officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service. These indemnification agreements also generally require us to advance all expenses reasonably and actually incurred by our directors and executive officers in investigating or defending any such action, suit or proceeding. We believe that these agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve as directors and executive officers.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, bylaws and indemnification agreements may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors and officers for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Further, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against our directors and officers as required by these indemnification provisions.

We have obtained insurance policies under which, subject to the limitations of the policies, coverage is provided to our directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of fiduciary duty or other wrongful acts as a director or officer, including claims relating to public securities matters, and to us with respect to payments that may be made by us to our directors and officers pursuant to our indemnification obligations or otherwise as a matter of law.

Certain of our non-employee directors may, through their relationships with their employers, be insured or indemnified against certain liabilities incurred in their capacity as members of our board of directors.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules

(a) Exhibits

*Certain of the exhibits and schedules to this Exhibit have been omitted in accordance with Regulation S-K Item 601(a)(5). The registrant agrees to furnish a copy of all omitted exhibits and schedules to the SEC upon its request.

(b) Financial Statement Schedules

All financial statement schedules are omitted because the information called for is not required or is shown either in the consolidated financial statements or in the accompanying notes.

Item 17. Undertakings

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed

that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Filing Fee Tables” or “Calculation of Registration Fee” table, as applicable, in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) that, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

(i) each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement;

(ii) each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; and

(iii) if the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(5) that, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(6) that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(c) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
